Former Gov. Lamido Of Jigawa Returns, To Report At EFCC On Thursday

Alhaji Sule Lamido, the
immediate past Governor of Jigawa, on Monday, returned to the country from his
foreign trip and promised to visit the Economic and Financial Crime Commission
(EFCC) on Thursday.

Lamido stated this while
speaking with newsmen in his Bamaina village in Birninkudu Local Government
area of the state.

He said that EFCC was anti
graft agency of the government, recognised by law, therefore, he would not shun
the invitation.
“I am aware of the invitation.’’

According to him, he is
always willing to honour this kind of invitation even when he is a governor
that enjoys immunity.

Lamido, however, said he
would not join issues with the incumbent governor on the debt he left before
leaving office.

It would be recalled that
there was a conflicting figure on the debt inherited by APC-led government in
the state.

The former governor said that
while leaving office, he held a special council meeting, where he briefed the
press on the liabilities he left.
